Re: texinfo-4.11 on AIX 4.3.3

Hi Gary, all,

    info/session.c didn't want to compile until I added #include
    <strings.h> so that it had a definition for strncasecmp

I changed the sources to use the multi-byte string comparison functions
from Gnulib.  There are no occurrences of strcasecmp or strncasecmp left.
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/MODULES.html#module=mbscasecmp

Other people have reported various problems in multibyte locales with
Info; I don't know if this change by itself will actually help anything
in that regard, but it seemed like it would be a prerequisite, at least.

If you or anyone can try out the sources in CVS now, that would be
great.  I admit I am a bit scared of this, although my simple tests all
went ok.

Thanks,
Karl
